There are several ways. I usually use a Two Step view for the sort of
thing you're describing; search the mailing lists for some examples I've
posted.
The other way many implement these is by simply rendering other views
within your view script:
<?= $this->render('foo.phtml') ?>

This changed in RC1 with the introduction of the ViewRenderer. Grab the
ViewRenderer object and manipulate it:
// Within an action controller:
$viewRenderer = $this->_helper->getHelper('viewRenderer');
$viewRenderer->setViewSuffix('php');
// Within a front controller plugin:
$viewRenderer =
Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getExistingHelper('viewRenderer');
$viewRenderer->setViewSuffix('php');
// Create and register your own customied view renderer:
$viewRenderer = new Zend_Controller_Action_Helper_ViewRenderer();
$viewRenderer->setViewSuffix('php');
Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::addHelper($viewRenderer);
